Calliope glanced over at Calista with mild surprise.
In the Baker family, there was a common sentiment among the younger generation: they both feared and avoided Silas. They knew he was capable, but they'd never dare ask him for help or advice.
Yet here was Calista, boldly declaring his intention to ask Silas for guidance on choosing a college major.
"What made you think of asking your uncle?" Calliope inquired.
"I decided on my own," Calista replied. His face, handsome in a youthful way, usually reflected the playful demeanor of a high school senior. But when it came to discussing his future, he was all seriousness.
"Uncle Silas is the most capable person in our family. If he's willing, I'm sure he'll give me great advice. My parents aren’t really clued in on this stuff, and I’m pretty clueless myself when it comes to picking the right major. But Uncle Silas has the savvy. He can help me chart a course and choose the major that suits me best. So, I want to ask him."
Calliope nodded, "You should definitely ask him."
If Silas wasn't going to choose Gideon to inherit the Baker Group, then surely another successor would be chosen from the family. And at that moment, she saw potential in Calista. He was sharp, sharper than she'd initially thought. She suspected he might also want to make an impression on Silas.
"Calista, are you interested in the Baker Group?" Calliope asked.
Calista’s eyes sparkled briefly before he masked it, pretending to be engrossed in a game. But Calliope could see it—this kid had ambition. She was quite pleased with this side of Calista.
It seemed like Silas should pay more attention to him.
Not long after, Gideon brought Yvette over, and they held a small wedding ceremony at the family estate. The newlyweds paid respects to their ancestors and served water to their parents and elders according to the house rules.
Calliope and Silas sat among the elders.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
